A former senator representing Zamfara central, Kabir Marafa, has accused Mai Mala Buni, chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) national caretaker committee and governor of Yobe state, of being on a mission to “kill” the party.
This in reaction to the parallel congresses that were held in Zamfara at the weekend.
There was one congress by the Governor Bello Matawalle-led faction while the former lawmaer’s faction conducted another one.
Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Sunday, Marafa said: “This confirms to us that the Mai Mala-led APC, as it is today, is on a mission to destroy APC,”

“But we don’t care, they have a right to destroy APC but in Zamfara we have interested parties and it is our state and we are not ready to destroy our own house and anybody desirous of doing so we have a right to say no.
“The essence of this briefing is to tell Nigerians why there is a faction again in Zamfara. Let everyone know that this faction came about because of the way and manner APC national is trying to suppress us in Zamfara state.
“Now APC looked for our trouble, we did not look for APC trouble. We did everything possible to accommodate our new visitor (Matawalle) but APC at all the points frustrated us.
